This matter is before the administrative
[0:56]
hearing officer
[0:58]
on an application for variance under
[1:01]
Springdale ordinance 10-6-5.
[1:04]
The variance application seeks relief
[1:06]
from Springdale town code 10-15-B-9-A,
[1:11]
which prohibits disturbance of slopes
[1:13]
with grades of 30% or more.
[1:16]
A hearing on the application was held on

The administrative hearing officer has
[1:30]
considered the statements and
[1:32]
presentation at the hearing, reviewed
[1:34]
and considered the application, the
[1:37]
documents submitted with the application
[1:39]
and the memorandum and accompanying
[1:41]
attachments from the town's principal
[1:43]
planner,
[1:44]
conducted a site visit of the property,
[1:47]
and reviewed the supplemental
[1:49]
information provided by the applicant
[1:51]
specific to the ruling of unreasonable
[1:54]
hardship.
[1:55]
Based thereon, the hearing officer makes
[1:58]
the following findings and ruling.
[2:08]
Uh the variance is granted.
[2:12]
Uh applicant must comply with all the
[2:15]
ordinances and standards applicable to
[2:18]
the development and building process
[2:20]
for the proposed improvement, including
[2:23]
the grading standards in chapter 10-15-B
[2:26]
of the Springdale ordinances.
[2:28]
Applicant must also make every effort to
[2:31]
minimize and mitigate any visual impacts

require.
